LOWELL -- The applicant seeking to transform the Bradford Industries site at 1857 Middlesex St. into a charter school has requested that the Planning Board public hearing on the matter be continued until Feb. 21.

The next hearing date on Middlesex Partners Limited Partnership's application for site-plan review and a special permit was scheduled to be today at 6:30 p.m.

But the applicant has requested the delay so that it can take more time to address comments from a traffic peer review report.

The board voted in January to continue the matter so that the board could receive an independent, peer review of the project's traffic analysis to assess the traffic impact of placing the Lowell Collegiate Charter School at the 1857 Middlesex St. site.
